AutoCAD Evangelist to Introduce AutoCAD 2012 Software at Joint Autodesk User Group Event

ST. LOUIS, MO – Autodesk Technical Evangelist and Cadalyst columnist Lynn Allen will present “What’s New in AutoCAD 2012” for the first time at a joint user group meeting on March 29 at the City Place One Auditorium in St. Louis, MO. Ms. Allen will review the latest features of AutoCAD 2012 software, including new robust model documentation tools, the new smarter associative arrays, and the productivity enhancing multifunctional grips.
 
Ms. Allen writes a monthly column in Cadalyst magazine called “Circles and Lines” and is the voice behind the popular Cadalyst videos “Tips and Tricks Tuesday with Lynn Allen”. A sought-after public speaker, Allen is the author of three books about AutoCAD software.
 
The free event will be sponsored by Hagerman & Company, a 27-year Autodesk reseller who will welcome members of local St. Louis users groups, including Groundbreakers STL (for civil designers), Revit Roundtable (for the AEC community), SLAMSUG (for manufacturing professionals), and the Gateway Autodesk Users Group (a multi-disciplinary chapter).
 
“This is a unique opportunity to address a group of users from every corner of the AutoCAD community, Allen said, “I look forward to sharing my latest tips and tricks with everyone!”
 
Ms. Allen will present “A Sneak Peek into the AutoCAD Crystal Ball”.  AutoCAD technology continues to evolve with each release, and Ms. Allen will take a look at some cutting edge technology that could find its way into upcoming releases of AutoCAD. Share your opinions about direction and help shape the future of AutoCAD.   The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.
